Perfect World Series bettor changes mind about risking $14 million winnings on Game 7

Common sense apparently has a price, and it’s $14 million.

According to Las Vegas sports gambling insider R.J. Bell, one World Series bettor had accumulated $14 million in winnings after going 6 for 6 on his “let it ride” World Series bets. The concept of “letting it ride” is basically an ongoing parlay where the bettor risks the total winnings with every subsequent game.

This unknown bettor had risked it all until making $14 million, and at one point, considered a bet to go 7 for 7 on either the Dodgers or Astros. That is no longer the case. He’s going to walk away with the winnings.
